Sickening Eagles stat

Here's to hoping the Eagles/Bears game tonight is not decided by seven points or less.

To put it bluntly, the Eagles will not win if it is a close game.

Over the past 2 1/2 year, the Birds are a pathetic 4-13-1 in games decided by seven points or less. They were 1-6-1 last year and 0-2 this year.

That is terrible.

McNabb and the offense cannot generate game winning drives.

Tony Romo did it today for the Cowboys. So did Eli Manning. And Matt Stafford.

But for some reason the Ealges just can't figure out how to win close games.

Maybe it's the fact that they can't run the ball. Maybe it's because the other team has already seen 400 passes come their way during the game. Maybe it's the play calling. Maybe McNabb is just not a clutch player.

Whatever it is, this is absolutely killing the Eagles.

It's depressing.
